Bruce is taking a walk in the woods this Saturday, avoiding everyone and speculating idly what's going to happen in his DnD campaign on Monday. Even if he had been paying more attention, he probably wouldn't've seen the sinkhole opening in time to avoid falling in.
He wonders, as he's falling faster than he can scramble back up, if this is it, if God is tired of allowing him to live and he's being dragged down to Hell.
"It's not like they're wrong about everything. Love is the most important part of being good."
He nods. "The Bible says that too. Though it's more about love for God and for other people in general, rather than loving someone specific."
"And I love you more than I care about being good, so I'm going to act like it's fine whether it is or not. Although we might still want to lie to everyone else about it."
"If he's going to be inclined to do dangerous things because of us he should have the full picture but also I am scared of being arrested."
"I have diplomatic immunity. I guess you don't." Lev thinks about it. "I could tell him I'm in love with a man but not say who."
"I guess. Though then he'll have the idea in his head and be wondering who it is, so we'll have to be even more careful."
"Maybe we should not tell him until we can figure out whether he's a reasonable person or not."
Nod. "Yeah. We can't un-tell him, so we should be sure we want him to know."
Kisses are a lot less nerve-wracking than planning! Still, it will take kind of a lot of kisses to get Bruce's mind off the future.
"We should read the books more thoroughly. I bet they're really interesting."
Bruce is not hard to convince to read books! Unlike most books, though, these ones he sometimes wants to pause in the middle of. For . . . related research.
